From the Press Release: "Mad Cave Studios proudly presents GHOSTBOX, a gripping supernatural thriller from New York Times bestselling author Mike Carey (Lucifer, The Girl With All the Gifts) and celebrated artist Pablo Raimondi (X-Factor, Sacred Creatures), with colors by José Villarrubia (Sweet Tooth, Mirror). Blending mystery, urban horror, and emotional suspense, this original graphic novel unboxes trauma, family secrets, and the supernatural forces we inherit."
“Ghostbox has been a labour of love for me and Pablo,” said writer Mike Carey. “We've been working up the story for a crazy number of years, and now we've finally found it a home at Comixology and Mad Cave. We've been amazed at the level of support and enthusiasm we've received, and we're overjoyed that our story will now get its print debut.”
“Creating Ghostbox with Mike Carey has been an absolute dream come true, and I couldn’t be happier that Mad Cave will be bringing it to print in one beautiful graphic novel,” added artist Pablo Raimondi. “Both ComiXology and Mad Cave have been a joy to work with, and I can't wait to share the few surprises we’re preparing for this upcoming edition.”
"Along with Carey’s writing chops, Raimondi’s art is masterful. Balancing elegance and dread, intimate character work and haunting visual metaphor. Each page pulses with tension and beauty, elevated by Villarrubia’s rich color palette. Ghostbox is an emotionally raw, visually arresting, and unrelentingly suspenseful."
